Clesslynn Jane Crawford, 2, passed away Saturday evening, March 26, 2022. Clesslynn was born September 13, 2019 to Taylor Dawn Shutte and Eli Crawford. Clesslynn was full of life and had a very bubbly personality. She was very loving and always happy. She was extremely smart for her age and loved putting a smile on everyone’s face.

There was never a dull moment around this sweet girl.
